One of​ the​ drawbacks with using oil drums for​ storage is​ ensuring that they take up as​ little space as​ possible. Thanks to​ their high strength, coupled with the​ fact that they will support the​ weight of​ other drums on top of​ them without becoming misshapen, the​ best way of​ keeping your workplace tidy is​ by stacking drums one on top of​ another. the​ weight and​ size of​ the​ drums means that this cannot be achieved by hand, so a​ specialist piece of​ drum handling equipment: a​ drum stacker is​ required. These devices work as​ a​ crane to​ lift one drum on top of​ the​ other. They are designed to​ be completely stable in​ use, and​ feature a​ hydraulic system that allows them to​ lift up to​ 800 pounds comfortably.

The range of​ jobs that drums come in​ handy for​ means that there are numerous pieces of​ drum handling equipment available in​ order to​ make work easier and​ more comfortable. From lifting equipment through to​ disposal, and​ from opening through to​ sealing the​ drums, you will find that some companies offer everything that you need to​ get the​ job done right every single time.
